Richard Baumgartner - THE BULLY BOYS - IN CAMP AND COMBAT
WITH THE 2ND OHIO VOLUNTEER INFANTRY REGIMENT, 1861-1864 - Blue
Acorn - ISBN# 1885033389 - BRAND NEW Hardcover in Dust Jacket (Protected in a New
Brodart Cover) - SIGNED BY Rick Baumgartner - 549pp - Index - Photos - Biblio - Notes -
Wartime letters from 40 Ohio Soldiers - Hurriedly assembled within hours of President Abraham
Lincoln's appeal for troops following the bombardment of Fort Sumter, the 2nd Ohio Volunteers
embarked on a journey in April 1861 that profoundly altered most of their lives. Few, if any,
realized then the enormous human and financial toll a civil war between North and South would
demand, but after 40 months of hardship, privation and loss the cost was plainly evident to those
fortunate enough to survive. The 2nd Ohio Infantry Regiment was among the very first to heed
the call to arms and leave its home state for the scenes of conflict. Originally organized for three
months' service, it saw fighting in Virginia at First Bull Run just one week before mustering out.
Reorganized in the late summer of 1861, the 2nd Ohio experienced the real "rough side of war"
during the next three years of arduous duty in Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia,
participating in many notable campaigns and battles, including Ivy Mountain, Huntsville, Battle
Creek, Perryville, Stones River, Hoover's Gap, Chickamauga, Lookout Mountain, Missionary
Ridge, Rocky Face Ridge and Resaca. Along the way the regiment's travails and triumphs were
recorded in letters from the front composed for private and public consumption back home.
Camp life and combat naturally attracted much attention, but the citizen-soldiers also commented
freely and frequently on topics ranging from politics and slavery to short rations, military
bungling and red tape, and, of course, their Confederate counterparts. As the first book-length
work ever published on this distinguished regiment, The Bully Boys addresses the 2nd Ohio's
previous omission from Civil War literature with award-winning historian Richard A.
Baumgartner's compilation of wartime letters written by nearly 40 of its members.
Supplementing the correspondence are 75 photographs and illustrations, as well as informative
excerpts gleaned from a heretofore unpublished memoir by Anson McCook, a scion of the
Buckeye State's famous "fighting" McCook family, who rose in rank from company commander
to the 2nd Ohio's colonelcy. Understandably proud of the soldiers with whom he served,
McCook sincerely believed that "Better material could not be found anywhere on earth." - $34.95

ILLUSTRATED HISTORY - McFarland Pub - ISBN#
9780786468560 - BRAND NEW Full-Sized Laminated Softcover - 272pp - 137 photos,
appendices, notes, bibliography, index - Monuments honoring leaders and victorious armies have
been raised throughout history. Following the American Civil War, however, this tradition
expanded, and by the early twentieth century, the Confederate dead and surviving veterans,
although defeated in battle, ranked among the world's most commemorated troops. This
memorialization, described in North Carolina Civil War Monuments, evolved through a
challenging and contentious process accomplished over decades. Prompted by the need to rebury
wartime dead, memorialization, led by women, first expressed regional grief and mourning then
expanded into a vital aspect of Southern memory. In North Carolina, 109 Civil War
monuments--101 honoring Confederate troops and eight commemorating Union forces--were
raised prior to the Civil War centennial. Photographs showcase each memorial while committee
records, legal documents, and contemporaneous accounts are used to detail the difficult process
through which these monuments were erected. Their design, location, and funding reflect not
only the period's sculptural and cultural milieu but also reveal one state's evolving grief and the
forging of public memory - Publisher's List Price = $39.95 - Our Price - $33.95

CIVIL WAR HISTORY AND ROSTER - McFarland Pub - ISBN# 9780786477135 -
BRAND NEW Full-Sized Laminated Softcover - 315pp - 45 photos - maps - glossary -
appendices - notes - bibliography - index - In April 1861, public opinion in North Carolina was
divided between Union and secession supporters. It was only after President Lincoln issued his
call to arms to subdue the rebel state of South Carolina that North Carolina seceded, primarily in
protest of the order to fight her sister state. Beginning with a look at the prevailing atmosphere in
North Carolina in the spring of 1861, this volume provides an in-depth history of one
Confederate infantry regiment, the 28th North Carolina, which was comprised primarily of units
from the central and southwestern parts of the state. It discusses the various battles in which the
28th North Carolina was involved, including Hanover Court House, Chancellorsville,
Gettysburg, Chapin's Farm and Appomattox. Special emphasis is placed on the thoughts and
surviving accounts provided by those soldiers who witnessed firsthand the atrocities of war.
Appendices contain (among other items) a chronology of the 28th North Carolina; a list of
casualties among officers; a list of casualties in the 28th from 1862 through 1864; and the full
text of letters from two members of the 28th, the Harding brothers- Publisher's

NEW Laminated Full-Sized Softcover - 238pp - 61 photos, 4 maps, appendices, notes,

etc. - The Civil War experience of the 10th Minnesota Volunteer Regiment resembles that of few
other regiments. On the day the 10th Minnesota first mustered at Fort Snelling in August 1862,
the Sioux Indian War broke out in western Minnesota. Soldiers who signed up to fight the
Confederacy instead found themselves marching to defend the frontier and spending a year
fighting two campaigns against the Sioux. When the 10th finally deployed south to fight the
Confederate Army, it engaged in a series of skirmishes in the West, including battles at Tupelo
and Nashville, and suffered many casualties. This chronicle merges the individual experiences of
Union soldiers, Native Americans, and Confederates to offer a compelling, panoramic portrait of
the 10th Minnesota during the Sioux Uprising and the Civil War, revealing the unwavering
resolve of this remarkable regiment - Publisher's List Price = $40 -

Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, and numerous other Civil War battles. Thorough historical and

Michael A. Forsyth - THE RED RIVER CAMPAIGN OF 1864 AND THE
LOSS BY THE CONFEDERACY OF THE CIVIL WAR - McFarland Publishing -
BRAND NEW Full-Sized Laminated Softcover - 182pp - Illustrated - Maps - Biblio - Index -
The Union Army's Red River Campaign began on March 12, 1864, with a two-pronged attack
aimed at gaining control of Shreveport, Louisiana. It lasted until May 22, 1864, when, after
suffering significant casualties, the Union army retreated to Simmesport, Louisiana. The
campaign was an attempt to prevent Confederate alliance with the French in Mexico, deny
supplies to Confederate forces, and secure vast quantities of Louisiana and Texas cotton for
Northern mills. With this examination of Confederate leadership and how it affected the Red
River Campaign, the author argues against the standard assumption that the campaign had no
major effect on the outcome of the war. In fact, the South had and lost an excellent
opportunity to inflict a decisive defeat that might have changed the course of history. With this
campaign as an ideal example, the politics of military decision-making in general are also
analyzed - Publisher's List Price = $35 - Our Price -

Softcover - Foreword by Joseph Bilby - 267pp - Notes - Biblio - Index - Photos - On December
7, 1864, just one week after the bloody battle of Franklin, Tennessee, William McGee, a
drummer boy from Newark, New Jersey, was credited with leading a Federal force to a decisive
victory over the Confederates in a clash just thirty miles from the carnage at Franklin. This
15-year-old Irish-American, on convalescent duty and acting as an orderly to General Lovell
Rousseau, was recognized for the capture of two guns, several hundred prisoners, and the saving
of Fortress Rosecrans in Murfreesboro from the famed Nathan Bedford Forrest. For his actions,
young McGee would soon be awarded a Medal of Honor, written up in newspapers and books as
a glorious New Jersey legend, be commissioned as a lieutenant in the United States Army at age
18, and then, inexplicably at the height of his notoriety, virtually disappear from history for more
than 100 years. This is the story of a lost war hero, a man-child with the world at his feet, whose
fall from grace is accelerated by fame, lies, alcohol, bigamy, and murder -

RECOLLECTIONS OF THE CIVIL WAR'S MOST NOTORIOUS CAMP-
McFarland Pub - ISBN# 9780786473618 - BRAND NEW Laminated Full-Sized Softcover -
Edited by David Ranzan - 224pp - 22 photos, notes, bibliography, index - This is a documentary
work offering a first-person account of a Union soldier's daily adversity while a prisoner of war
from 20 September 1863 to 4 June 1865. In 1891, while a patient at the Leavenworth National
Home, Irish immigrant Edward Glennan began to write down his experiences in vivid detail,
describing the months of malnutrition, exposure, disease and self-doubt. The first six months
Glennan was incarcerated at Libby and Danville prisons in Virginia. On 20 March 1864, Glennan
entered Camp Sumter, located near Andersonville, Georgia. He reminisced about the events of
his eight-month captivity at Andersonville, such as the hanging of the Raider Six, escape tunnels,
gambling, trading, ration wagons, and disease. Afflicted with scurvy, Glennan nearly lost his
ability to walk. To increase his chances for survival, he skillfully befriended other prisoners,
sharing resources acquired through trade, theft and trickery. His friends left him either by parole
or death. On 14 November 1864, Glennan was transported from Andersonville to Camp Parole in
Maryland; there he remained until his discharge on 4 June 1865..- Publisher's

From his election in November 1860 to his death in April 1865, Abraham Lincoln faced constant
danger from those hostile to him and to the Union cause. Lincoln's enemies made four overt
attempts on his life, including a Confederate partisan effort to infect him with yellow fever by
sending a contaminated valise of clothing to the White House. Because Lincoln's life ended with
John Wilkes Booth's assassination plot, the president's protection has come under extreme
scrutiny, with many considering it flawed, inadequate, or completely lacking. By providing the
first thorough exploration of the security surrounding Lincoln, this intriguing study offers new
insight into this long-running issue. Detailing the dangers, real and uncertain, facing Lincoln and
the unprecedented measures taken to protect his life and health, this work presents a fresh
perspective on the presidency of the Great Emancipator - Publisher's List

studies of Mosby's career are largely based on postwar memoirs. This narrative balances those
accounts with previously unpublished official contemporary records left by the Union soldiers
assigned to the defense of Washington, D.C. The formation of the Michigan Cavalry Brigade is
fully documented, along with the exploits of the brigade in the months before George Custer took
command. Largely forgotten events, such as Jeb Stuart's Christmas Raid, the fight at Fairfax
Station during Stuart's ride to Gettysburg, as well as the vital role played by Union general Julius
Stahel's cavalry division in the critical month of June 1863, are examined at length. - Publisher's List Price =$45 - Our Price - $41.95

While eyewitness accounts of the Civil War by enlisted men are uncommon, even scarcer are
personal narratives from the Civil War in the West. These journals and letters were written by
Lewis Roe, an Illinois farm boy who served in the 7th U.S. Infantry and the 50th Illinois
Volunteer Infantry between 1860 and 1865. They offer details of an epic march from Fort
Bridger, Wyoming, to New Mexico, a firsthand account of the Battle of Valverde (1862), and
Roe's efforts to understand ongoing events as the country rushed toward the outbreak of
hostilities. Later in the war, Roe documented the Union occupation of Rome, Georgia, and the
battle of Allatoona, and left us a candid account of an enlisted man's experiences with Sherman's
army on its March to the Sea and in the Carolinas Campaign. His relative objectivity and
attention to everyday details make this valuable record a lively read -

The commonwealth's largest combat engagement also took an immense toll on the community of
Perryville and citizens in surrounding towns. After Confederates achieved a tactical victory, they
were nonetheless forced to leave the area. With more than 7,500 casualties, the remaining Union
soldiers were unprepared for the enormous tasks of burying the dead, caring for the wounded and
rebuilding infrastructure. Instead, this arduous duty fell to the brave and battered locals. Stuart
Sanders, former executive director of the Perryville Battlefield Preservation Association, presents
the first in-depth look at how the resilient residents dealt with the chaos of this bloody battle and
how they rebuilt their town from the rubble left over - Publisher's List Price =

ILLUSTRATED HISTORY-
McFarland Pub - ISBN# 9780786473885 - BRAND NEW Full-Sized Laminated Softcover -
212pp - photos, notes, bibliography, index - Though the Union Navy held a numerical advantage
over its Confederate counterpart, the South's forces had one weapon that was not readily
available to the North--underwater mines, known at the time as torpedoes. More Union ships
were destroyed by torpedoes than by all other means combined. The South's superiority in
underwater weaponry can be directly traced to an oceanographer named Matthew Fontaine
Murray. Recognizing the South's limited capabilities, Murray persuaded its leaders to develop
underwater weapons. This is the first detailed history ever of the South's development of both
offensive and defensive underwater weaponry. Many photographs of salvaged Confederate mines
are included. - Publisher's List Price = $25 - Our

commercial steamboats at the beginning of the conflict, the three formed the core of the North's
Western Flotilla, later the Mississippi Squadron. The book focuses on the activities of these
wooden warriors while providing context for the greater war, including accounts of their famous
commanders, their roles in both large and small battles, ship-to-ship combat, and support for the
armies of Gen. U.S. Grant and Gen. William T. Sherman.- Publisher's List

Stentiford, Barry M. - THE RICHARDSON LIGHT GUARD OF
WAKEFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS - A TOWN MILITIA IN WAR AND PEACE,
1851-1975 - McFarland Publishing - ISBN# 9780786473489 - Brand New Laminated
Softcover - 213pp - 44 photos, notes, bibliography, index - This book traces the history of the
Richardson Light Guard of Wakefield, Massachusetts, from its origins in 1851 until its end in
1975. What had been an institution of community members and local elites passed to town, then
state, and finally federal government. During the same period, Wakefield evolved from an
agrarian town to a manufacturing town and finally to a bedroom suburb, ending the practice of a
handful of local elites ruling the town unchallenged. Though the rise of the National Guard was
generally positive, for some militia companies, inclusion in the National Guard weakened vital
bonds with their communities. In the 19th century, the Richardson Light Guard thrived under
generous patrons, a supportive town, and a relatively wealthy state government. After becoming
part of the National Guard in 1916, the links with its home community steadily weakened, finally
breaking during World War II. After the war, the National Guard company had few links to
Wakefield and was reorganized out of existence in 1975 - Publisher's List
